Antinitrosic
Antinitrosic activity is a medicinal activity that helps to reduce the levels of nitrosamines, which are known to be carcinogenic compounds. These compounds are produced by the reaction of nitrites with amines and are found in food, water, and air. Antinitrosic activity helps to reduce the levels of these compounds by binding and blocking them from being produced. This activity has been used in pharmaceuticals to reduce the risk of cancer and other diseases associated with the presence of nitrosamines. Additionally, antinitrosic activity has also been used in food processing and in water purification to reduce the levels of nitrosamines in food and water.
